Leonieke Baerwaldt

“Just as every fairy tale shows something of what people hope, suspect, desire or fear, “Here we come from” also moves into the deeper layers of our soul.”

“An ultimate story about maternal love and loss that more than poignantly shows how hope prolongs torture.”

“Leonieke Baerwaldt returns to the gruesome aspect in our fairy tales in her extraordinary debut, “Here We Come From.” A happy ending gives way to social criticism.”

“The Little Mermaid fairy tale moved to the present. This debutant does it so original and smart that you are left slightly stunned. Those scars behind that mother's ear... are they gills? Hooray, the literary experiment is still alive. '
